The 'Lonrshoremen's Boycott.

New YORK, Jan. 21-Tbe boycott by the
longshoremen's union of the freight carried by
the Old Dominion Steamship Company pro-
ceeded with its usual vigor to-day, and both
sides, the longshoremen and the foreign steam
ship companies, waiting for the expected
storm to burst The Post says that nearly all
the steamship companies with exception
determined to resist the action of the strikers
and that the first boycotted freight handled by
any Of the steamship companies will be a signal
for general strike. The 1ongshoremen's union
has not only boycotted freight carried by the
Old Dominion Company, but the liehtermen
who have let their boats to the Old Dominion
Company, as we'll as lighters whose captains are
not union men. 1t is expected that the action of
Judge Shipman in issuing an order compelling
the French company to receive freight that had
been brought into port by the Old Dominion
Company will hurry along general strike.

The Outlook in Ohio.

The Ohio Democrats intend to make an
extraordinary effort to carry that State this
fall They have a good candidate and a
good platform, and the outlook is that there
will be much greater harmony among the
different factions than there has been in
State elections for the last few years. It is
true that they have rarely been able to
elect their Gubernatorial ticket, but the
leaders believe they will be able to do so
this year
There is no doubt that Gov. Foraker will
be renominated by the Republicans He is
popular with his party, and there does not
appear to be any other candidate strong
enough to wrest the nomination from him.
The convention will meet at Toledo on
July 81, and will doubtless nominate a ticket
very quickly.
1t is. probable that the Prohibitionists and
the Labor party will nominate tickets.
While, of course, neither has any chance for
success, each will have considerable infiu-
ence on the result of the election. The Pro
hibitionists will draw their strength mainly
from the Republicans, while the Labor
party will cut into the Democratic vote.
The strength of the Labor party is an I'M
known quantity, but it is not believed that
it is anywhere near as great as that of the
Prohibitionists. Last year tine Prohibition
lists polled $4,000 votes, and there is good
reason for thinking they will have greater
number this year. The larger the number
Is the better it will be for the Democrats
